This was a very disappointing recipe. It was an unappetizing brown color because of the tea. It also didn't set up very well. We ended up throwing it away.

Very easy to make and a good make-the-night-before dessert. I added the whipped cream right before we left and it was a huge hit! The crust was a tad bit too buttery for me, I think I'll cut it down to 4 T next time. Definitely making this again for Memorial Day!!!
